are  gathered  for  the  purpose  of  being  registered,  read  the 
name  of  each  voter  so  returned  by  the  Auxiliary  Registrars 
for  registration.  Every  name  shall  be  entered  upon  the  books 
of  registration  kept  inland  for  such  Hundred  or  Election  Dis- 
trict, if  it  is  found  that  the  person  represented  by  such  name 
wouid  have  been  qualified  to  have  appeared  there  m  person

tion, for  the  Hundred  or  Election  District ;  and  the  question  of 
the  ri^ht  to  register  such  name  shall  be  determined  by  the 
registration  officers  just  as  they  are  authorized  to  determine 
like  questions  concerning  those  who  present  themselves  be- 
fore them  there  in  the  Election  District.  The  Registrar  shall 
keep  complete  and  inviolate  the  list  of  names  and  qualifica- 
tions just  as  he  received  them  from  the  Auxiliary  Registrars, 
but  such  list  shall  always  be  subject  to  the  inspection  of  the 
qualified  voters  of  the  Election  District,  provided  it  shall  not 
be  taken  from  the  possession  of  the  Registrar. 

The  Registrar  of  the  Election  District  shall  also  make  and 
keep  for  the  inspection  of  the  voters  of  his  Election  District 
a  list  of  all  those  names  which  he  has  received  from  the  Aux- 
iliarv  Registrars  and  which  have  been  granted  registration 
on  the  books  of  that  Hundred  or  Election  District,  and  he  shall 
also  keep  another  separate  list  of  all  the  names  so  received  by 
him  which  have  been  denied  registration  upon  said  books,  and 
those  lists  shall  in  like  manner  be  at  all  times  subject  to  the 
inspection  of  the  qualified  voters  of  that  Hundred  or  Election 
District.  And  from  the  action  of  the  Registration  officers  in 
so  granting  or  refusing  registration  to  any  name  received

terested  person  rnay  appeal  as  provided  for  in  Section  4  of 
Article  V  of  the  Constitution.

State,  and  he  shall  be  allowed  and  paid  by  the  State  Treasurer 
such  an  amount  for  traveling  expenses  as  shall  be  approved 
by  the  State  Auditor  upon  vouchers  presented  him,  PRO- 
VIDED, that  all  appeals  for  an  absent  member  of  the  military 
force  may  be  taken  by  his  attorney,  as  effectually  as  by  him- 
self, and  in  all  appeals  from  the  registration  of  any  citizen 
absent  in  the  military  service,  defense  can  be  made  as  effect- 
ually by  his  attorney  as  if  he  were  present  in  person.
